Why Breckenridge is the best ski town in Colorado

With an average of 300 inches of snow annually, legendary town events and an après ski scene just steps from the slopes, Breckenridge is on a lot of people’s lists as their favorite place to visit.

Sure the mountain is huge and offers terrain for everyone, but Breck’s historic Main Street is worth a visit alone.

Here are a few reasons Breckenridge earns high praise as Colorado’s best overall ski town:

First, there’s the snow

We wouldn’t be a ski town if it weren’t for the skiing, and there would be no skiing without plenty of snow.

Nestled in the shadow of the TenMile Range and several fourteeners, Breck reaps big meteorological benefits. Weather systems scale up the peaks, gaining strength and moisture before they let loose over Breckenridge.

Breckenridge is host to a never-ending stream of events including film festivals, art exhibits, concerts, dancing, legendary spas, and shopping galore.

The town also offers museums, coffee shops, bike paths, and outdoor play areas for all ages.

Epic town festivals all year round

There's something going on almost every week in Breckenridge, from the bi-annual Breckenridge Beer Festival to a snow sculpture contest, music, bike festivals, and our annual Ullr Fest, paying homage to the God of Winter with parties, a parade, and events for all ages.

Plenty of family-friendly activities

Your entire family can have an unforgettable time in Breckenridge.

From Ski and Ride School to Starlight Dinners, ice-skating, a zipline and our Gold Runner Alpine Coaster, we have plenty of activities for kids and grownups alike.

Romance

Breckenridge is the best with its offerings of romantic dining options, private luxury lodging, and plenty of places to mingle.
